Excel filter seems to depend on certain Microsoft-isms that no longer
exist in modern
versions of MS Office; exporting Excel into an older format (Excel
'97) might help but most
likely will not - it looks like certain "features" in the format were
"fixed" by MS.
I would suggest exporting to a text file (CSV) and importing that -
or, if all else fails, exporting
to a text file, writing DL headers by hand and importing the resulting
DL file (see manual for
DL format).
Yes, this is a pain. And a bug in the software. Steve Borgatti, can
you hear us? :-)
